Author's Note: Welcome to a new fic! This one here is a multi-chaptered fic, in which it will focus on moments in Hyrule's history, following stories/anecdotes from ones focusing on Link's adventures, to ones that center on the side characters within Hyrule, or even the stories of the characters that dwell outside the kingdom in question, such as Termina and Lorule.

In other words, Pokemon Generations, but Legend of Zelda based.

So here is the first chapter in this Pokemon Generations-inspired series, called "The Danger", and it is based on the first Zelda game released in 1986. Keep in mind that since Link is a silent protagonist in the games, he'll have little to no lines in the series. This is also keeping in line with the Pokemon protagonists in the Generations series having their faces obscured and being silent.

This is my first major multi-chaptered fic in a while, and I hope you guys enjoy.


Book 1: The Danger

It wasn't every day that a field of the Land of Hyrule was empty, but just for today, it was.

Continuing his trek in the expanse of the Kingdom's field, Link passed by, his supplies at his back, and eyes focused forward. It had been only a few days since he started his journey to save Hyrule and its princess at Impa's request, and yet he was making a considerable amount of progress, with 4 pieces of the Triforce of Wisdom safely tucked away in a special pouch. The young boy couldn't wait until he could get to the next dungeon, where the next piece of the Triforce was hiding away.

But for now, he needed to rest, and conveniently, there was a lone tree in the middle of the field, and so Link made quick steps to that tree for a break.

Link's back laid against the bark of the tree, the shade giving off a cooling effect. It was nice to have nothing threatening close by, and so it was right for the young boy to take a little nap…

…At least, until he heard roars from a distance. To think was ready to take a break from saving the Kingdom.

Suddenly his long-awaited nap was the last thing in his list now. Right now, he had to get up and fight off any forces of darkness roaming the area.

Link drew his sword, and the roars continued to resound, getting nearer and nearer. Perfect timing for him.

The young boy dashed into the scene, coming face to face with his foes, the Moblin horde of three.

Time to strike.

His sword arm swung, managing to make a hit on one of the creatures, in which it shrieked in pain and disintegrated. The second, seeing its comrade's death, has already recoiled his arm in preparation, though Link had made a dodge once the arm made its strike, and then he shot a sword beam to finish off the second. The third seemed to be a bit tougher than the other two since, by the time Link readied himself to face it, the Moblin took the initiative to hit him once at the back.

Link nearly collapsed from the sudden attack but managed to pull himself together, and with a grunt of determination, stabbed the Moblin a few times to its demise. The danger had already passed, however, a new risk appeared; he felt warm liquid flowing down from where he was struck. It seemed like the Moblin's attack was stronger than he thought.

Wasting no time, Link rushed to find safe haven, and not too far off, his eyes spotted a cave, or at least an opening to one.

"Ah!" he gasped out in relief, and then made his way there with items in tow.

Once he entered the cave, there he spotted the last thing he expected to be inside.

A Moblin.

Link drew his sword out once more, ignoring the injury at his back, and more intent on eliminating this supposed threat. He drew his sword back to stab the Moblin, but he was stopped with a shout.

"Wait!"

Link stopped. He tilted his head to the side, almost with a mix of confusion and shock by the fact that a Moblin was speaking to him in the common tongue.

"Don't hurt me! Spare my life, please."

The boy remained unconvinced, as he was still glaring at the Moblin for signs of deceit. He raised his sword again.

"No, please! Here!"

Suddenly, Link was looking at a handful of rupees. The Moblin had a hand outstretched, hand full of red and blue gems of currency. He raised an eyebrow in question.

"Here, you can probably buy a potion with this amount; I don't have any, unfortunately…" the Moblin explained. "It's better than having that back wound of yours untreated, right?"

For a moment, Link stood in silence with the revelation of the Moblin suddenly being helpful to him. Then slowly, he blinked and nodded in understanding.

"Good. In any case, though, I have to leave. If my fellow kin ever found out I aided you, they'll get me." The creature said, head looking both ways to ensure no one else was listening in. "So, we must keep this between us, understood?"

Seeing as there was no other option, Link nodded.

"Then it's settled. It'll be our little secret." The Moblin rose up and prepared to go deeper within the cavern. Similarly, Link rose up from his position to get out of the cave. But before it went any further, the Moblin turned back to Link. "Don't forget, Hylian…

It's a secret to everybody."


Author's Note: So here's the end of the first chapter in the series! I hope that anecdote was entertaining for you guys.

Retro Link makes his debut here, and in spite of the minimal character dialogue, I hope I got his personality down pat.

Next up is The Adventure of Link, with an anecdote that wouldn't particularly focus on Retro Link's 16-year-old self. Instead, Zelda will be the star of the next story.

Feel free to give feedback.
